Lamech (Son of Methushael)

Lamech was the sixth-generation descendant of Cain and the son of Methushael in the Biblical Book of Genesis. He took two wives: Adah and Zilah, and his sons were Jabal (the father of nomads), Jubal (the father of musicians), Tubal-cain (forger of all instruments of bronze and iron), and Na'amah. He later told his wives that he had slain a man for wounding him and a young man for striking him, and that his punishment would be eleven times worse that of his ancestor, Cain, who had slain his own brother Abel.
